The US was so concerned that Putin would use nuclear weapons on Ukraine that we sent diplomats around to friends and not-so-friends and asked them to talk Russia down.
Meanwhile Pope Francis seems to be asking Ukraine to surrender. Most of the world is shocked by this. They haven't been paying attention. Francis has been hinting that Russia was justified by NATO "aggression". Francis may be the best pope that we've had since John Paul I (don't get me started on II) but he's hardly infallible. He either missed the part where Russia stole Crimea and was hungry for more or he has an extreme interpretation of "turn the other cheek." [Independent]
Political Discussion welcome.
